Objective: To describe the outcome of a case of severe drug-resistant fetal tachyarrhythmia with progressive hydrops treated with fetoscopic transesophageal pacing (FTEP).
Method: A case of fetal tachyarrhythmia complicated by progressive hydrops is presented. The fetus, diagnosed at 26 weeks of gestation, had supraventricular tachycardia with a mechanism suggestive of atrial reentry.

Background: Predicting complete liberation from mechanical ventilation (MV) is still challenging. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) offers a non-invasive measure of regional ventilation distribution and could bring additional information.
Research Question: Whether the display of regional ventilation distribution during a Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT) could help at predicting early and successful liberation from MV.

SARS-CoV-2 was responsible for the global pandemic. Approximately 10-15% of patients with COVID-19 developed respiratory failure with adult acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which required treatment in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The cytokine storm observed in severe COVID-19 was frequently handled with steroids.

Background: Surgery for esophageal cancer has an associated high rate of postoperative complications such as anastomotic leakage (AL) and fistulas. Pre-operative sarcopenia as a loss of skeletal muscle mass and function is identified as a potential prognostic factor in determining the outcomes of oncological surgical resections for esophageal cancers. In this study, we evaluated the impact of body composition on postoperative complications in esophageal cancer surgery.

After first-line treatment failure, patients with non-muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma (NMIUC) are recommended to undergo radical cystectomy. However, those unable to pursue radical surgery or desiring bladder preservation require effective salvage therapies. Multi-agent treatment regimens are particularly useful for targeting the complex resistance mechanisms of recurrent UC.
